Looking for Training?
Is your organization struggling to design impactful and meaningful program and product designs?
Invisible Light offers custom-designed courses for individuals and organizations seeking to strengthen their ability to embed research into practice and enhance program and product impact outcomes.
We provide a range of training topics offered in 1-day, 1-week, or 7-week formats, delivered in modular sessions typically lasting 1.5 or 3 hours. Each course is custom-tailored to the context, goals, and needs of your organization. Class sizes generally range from 15–30 participants.
Training Topics Include:
• Conflict Mapping — How to identify macro- and micro-level conflict causes and triggers to inform policy, design, and operational decision-making.
• Context Analysis — How to interpret local cultural and conflict contexts; and work backward via culturally grounded communication and peacebuilding strategies to encode relevant practices and phenomena into program design.
• Asset Mapping — How to assess existing community and organizational resources that can be leveraged for program design, resilience, and sustainability.
• Needs Assessment — How to identify and prioritize community and population needs that require targeted interventions.
• Program Development — How to design evidence-based, contextually relevant peacebuilding, protection, and empowerment initiatives for specific populations.
• Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) — How to measure program effectiveness, strengthening feedback systems, and inform future implementation.
• Child-and Youth-Centered Research Design — How to use participatory media, communication, and technology tools to understand children’s media practices, interpretive processes, intergroup attitudes, experiences and opinions, and design and evaluate youth-led peacebuilding initiatives.
